This is the way. They probably won’t catch on for a week or two
Start new job mid February, call in sick with Covid at old job.

Sounds like you currently work at the company I work for as our bonuses get paid the same day haha
GO FLAMES GO!
Some good advice.
I would be honest with new employer.
Suggest starting bonus to offset the one you're losing or they can wait for your stated start date.
Definitely a bargaining chip when salary negotiations take place.
Others have mostly nailed this one down. Bonus, is not salary but us humans often think its baseline. If you want to be sure you get it, A: don’t let on you on leaving before the money is there, and give no notice. B: negotiate a signing bonus to cover the amount you will lose OR C: share with your future employer the situation and land on a start date that solve all problems.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member.

I've let the new company know that I would like to stay at my current company so that I can receive my bonus, they understood and didn't seem ti have an issue with it.
I'll see if I get an offer and go from there. I have 5 weeks vacation. I could use one of them to buy some time if needed.

The o&g industry is small, they would find out and it wouldn't look good.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
I like the wfh for both companies. Haha.
Separate PC's and cellphones.
Total conflict of interest if both companies are same industry.
We had a person try this recently. Found out and fired within 2 weeks
Can an employer fire you for looking or accepting another job before you give your two weeks? Well i guess they can do whatever they want but seems like that would make a good severance case if you've been there for many years.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
This. Many companies will just pay you out and then end your employment. While you might have a case in court to show that was their choice, do you really want to have to deal with that possibility?This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
I'd play it safe.
I will wait it out if I get the job offer. Maybe give them 1 week notice instead of 2 maybe.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
So… when you accepted this other job what did you tell them your availability was lol

I haven't been offered it yet, second interview went well tho. I did tell them i want to stay at my current role until the end of February so i can receive my bonus and they seemed to be understanding.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Employers understand this. Be open and honest when the offer is given, start date is the single most commonly adjusted item on any offer, it's no big deal.

That's good. If the new company wasn't interested in pushing back a start date a few weeks so you could collect a bonus, I would be questioning if that's the kind of company I would want to work for.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
We had a guy do this in 2020. He followed a bunch of guys who started a new company but didn't tell the company he was currently working for that he was leaving. He answered emails but could never be reached by phone. I guess someone called him one day and he had changed his voicemail to the new company he was working at which ended up being how he got caught. No idea how long he was double dipping but he was fired immediately.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
